[Ads-l] QOTY candidate

[dave@wilton.net]

Oh, the award for nuttiest since "Jewish space lasers" has to go once again to Marjorie Taylor Greene for her tweet on 3 October in reference to Hurricane Helene and the disaster in North Carolina:
 
"Yes they can control the weather. It’s ridiculous for anyone to lie and say it can’t be done."
 
As to who "they" are, of course it is the Jews. It's always the Jews.

For a Trump QotY, I would think it'd have to be the one from the debate,
about immigrants eating our cats and dogs. It's the nuttiest thing a
politician has said since "Jewish space lasers".
